After seeing Zhao Min's figure, more than a dozen maids around Yuling Pool hurried over to greet her.
"Your Majesty."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Get up, everyone. Tomorrow I will leave to attack your old master. Today, I will let you serve me one more time.
Zhao Min gently opened her arms.
Two maids hurriedly walked up to her and gently took off her red dragon robe.
Afterwards, two maids came and helped Zhao Min take off her underwear.
Zhao Min's beauty is not only reflected in her face, but also in her figure, which is impeccable.
Her figure is so attractive that even women would be fascinated by it.
Zhao Min walked into the pond leisurely. A maid quickly brought her a small cup of wine and an apple.
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Girl, I didn't expect that you still remember my habits."
The maid said quickly, "Your Majesty, even if I forget my own last name, I dare not forget your custom.
It's getting late. After you take a bath, it's time to go to bed. A small glass of wine can help you sleep.
Zhao Min smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Then she went back to chewing the apple.
Zhao Min asked the maid, "What do you think, my chances of winning this expedition against Zhang Wuji are?"
The maid quickly said, "Sir, let me wish you a successful start in advance."
Zhao Min laughed: "Silly girl, you people are all hypocritical. I'm sure you really want Zhang Wuji to grind me to ashes."
The maid quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, I am innocent. I am just an insignificant person. All I want is two meals a day and a place to sleep. Apart from that, I don't ask for anything else."
Zhao Min smiled helplessly: "Silly girl, get up. Normally, I only kill people on the battlefield, and those I kill are all people who can threaten my Yuan Dynasty."
"However, I'm afraid you should be thankful that you are a small person. Sometimes, small people live longer. Chen Youliang in Jiangnan had an army of 600,000, but they were completely wiped out in the Battle of Poyang Lake. The great hero committed suicide by burning himself to death."
"Chen Youliang was a great figure, but his end was so miserable, because he wanted the world, but you only wanted two meals and a place to stay. Sometimes, the less you ask for, the better your end will be."
The maidservant said quickly: "What I ask for is really just two meals and a place to stay. Whoever becomes the emperor or unifies the world has nothing to do with me. I only know that whoever comes to me, I will serve him/her wholeheartedly. Apart from that, I don't want anything else."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "You are a very conscious girl. You don't need to be afraid. I didn't make things difficult for you a few months ago, and I will not make things difficult for you today."
"Come, rub my back."
Zhao Min will start her expedition against Zhang Wuji tomorrow, so she must take a good bath today.
When we get to the battlefield, the conditions will not be as good as they are now.
…
Early in the morning of the second day, nearly 500,000 troops headed straight for Jinyang.
The army was filled with murderous intent and stretched for dozens of miles. At first glance, it seemed endless, stretching from the earth to the sky.
The vanguard general Duan Zihao was in the front of the army, while Zhao Minwen was in the center of the army.
At this moment, Zhao Min was sitting steadily on a gorgeous carriage, with the sword of the Heavenly Sword at her hand.
There were also many delicious foods on the carriage, including apples, beef jerky, biscuits, and fine wine.
On the way, Zhao Min almost never stopped talking.
After eating another piece of beef jerky, Zhao Min lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Biography of Wang Baobao".
In a flash, Wang Baobao came to Zhao Min and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?"
Zhao Min asked, "At our current speed, how long will it take us to reach Jinyang?"
Wang Baobao said: "Your Majesty, speed is of the essence in war. At our current speed, we can reach the city of Jinyang in three days."
Zhao Min rolled her eyes at Wang Baobao and said, "Speed is of the essence in war? That depends on who you are dealing with. I bet Zhang Wuji had already heard the news when I just came out of Dadu."
"I believe that Jinyang is now firmly defended by Zhang Wuji."
"Even if we go a few days earlier, it will be of no help, and it will make the soldiers around us very tired."
"Go ahead and tell General Duan not to march so fast and to arrive in Jinyang in five days. Also, leave troops to guard every strategic point on the way to Jinyang.
"As the army advances, we must send out more scouts to explore the way ahead, and we must advance step by step with caution."
…
Zhao Min's army was not far from Jinyang.
This news soon spread to the streets and alleys of Jinyang City.
The war is about to begin, and many people who do not want to be affected have begun to leave Jinyang one after another.
According to Zhao Linger's instructions, Yu Fei stayed with Zhang Wuji closely during this period.
For this, she was often given the cold shoulder by Zhou Zhiruo.
That day, Zhang Wuji did not leave the military camp until the sun set.
With the afterglow of the setting sun, Zhang Wuji looked around, and for a moment, he felt a little sad.
"Damn it."
Yu Fei on the side asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Zhang Wuji said: "Look at the shops around here. It's far from closing time yet, but many of them have already closed."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Zhao Min has raised an army to attack. In a few days, they will be at the gates of the city. Those who are afraid of death will of course leave in advance."
Zhang Wuji said: "These damn merchants need to be dealt with. When I first ascended the throne, I ordered the reduction of taxes for the entire Hexi region for one year, including the taxes that merchants should pay."
"As for the financial deficit, my sister filled it with her own private property."
"Now, with the war imminent, it is time to stabilize the people's hearts, but these businessmen choose to leave at this time. Their departure is bound to cause some unrest."
Yu Fei quickly said, "Sir, do you want to seal off the city?"
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "Forget it. These businessmen are people without country or home. They just come for profit or leave for profit."
"After I get past Zhao Min, I will definitely discipline these businessmen. Some things can no longer be run by businessmen and should be nationalized."
"Nationalize it?" Yu Fei was surprised: "What do you mean, sir?"
Zhang Wuji said: "The first thing to be affected is food, followed by salt and iron. If we control these things, we can control the hearts of the people. As long as the people and soldiers have enough to eat, there will never be too much trouble."
Yu Fei quickly said: "Young Master, your words are shocking. I have taken note of your words. However, the country also needs the help of businessmen to manage these industries. My senior sister and I are very proficient in business. After we deal with Zhao Min, we will study this matter in detail."
